We are pleased to inform you that during your next visit to Accurate Vision Clinic, you will experience the benefits of the latest high technology in primary eye care – the optomap ® Retinal Exam. This scanning laser ophthalmoscope is a wellness screening tool that assists us in the evaluation of your retina. With the optomap ® we can discover any abnormalities or confirm the health of your retina, diagnose any potentially harmful diseases and determine the best course of action. An annual comprehensive eye exam is an important component of your health care regimen. These yearly check-ups enable us to test your vision and are also important to examine the inside and back area of your eye, known as the retina. The sensitive tissue that makes up the retina is susceptible to a variety of diseases that could lead to loss of vision or in some cases blindness. The early detection of any retinal abnormality is crucial to maintaining your ocular and systemic health. It is important to understand that in most cases of eye disease, in early stages, you will experience no signs or symptoms.

The optomap ® Retinal Exam is a simple procedure. In less than a second with one click of a button, this instrument non-invasively generates a high resolution, digital, color image. This image becomes a part of your permanent medical record and enables us to enhance the digital image to see more of your retina, measure aspects of your eye and magnify some of the finer details. We can also track changes in your eye over time by comparing each year’s optomap ®. In addition, you take a more active role in your eye care by reviewing the images with your doctor and learning about how to “Protect Your Vision.” If you are interested in learning more about the optomap ®, please visit www.optomap.com.
